The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 4.51 star rating.

Fabulous! My cranky but cute 1934 Gaffers & Sattler gas oven makes baking a challenge, and I'm not a great baker anyway, but this turned out like a dream. I baked it longer because the oven is slow, but it turned out moist, rich and delicious. I couldn't taste the orange, but others could. Next time I'll add zest. Because I was making this for guests with small children, I substituted orange juice for the orange liqueur. I can't believe I baked anything this good!

This was a supremely moist cake and easy to prepare but I didn't taste the orange. I used cream cheese frosting with grand marnier mixed in the frosting as well as the cake. People at work said I outdid myself but that they didn't taste the orange either. I might try orange zest next time.

Yummy - I made it twice in two weeks. I used the vanila pudding but use semi sweet chocolate chips and a little orange zest. In the glaze I used cointreau and orange extract to give a bigger orange flavor.

I really liked the texture of this cake. Bundt cakes to me always seem so dry but this one is nice and moist on the inside. I used the chocolate cake mix and also the chocolate pudding. I then used the mini semi sweet chocolate chips. I only gave it a 4 star rating because even though I used grand marnier I still did not taste the orange in the recipe. Next time Im going to add some orange oil or perhaps some orange zest.

I made this as mini-cupcakes instead of cakes, and chopped up the chips so they weren't overwhelming. The cake is extremely moist, and I would reccommend no icing or topping at all, just serve hot with vanilla ice cream to complement the flavors. Also, I put a whipped cream cheese frosting on half and a fluffy, mild chocolate frosting on the other half of the cupcakes, and everyone enjoyed both variations. However, I did make a change to the recipe as I could not get Liqueur; I just substituted an equal amount of unsweetened orange juice concentrate, plus 1/4t orange extract for a little extra orange.

I loved this cake. I used Grand Marnier orange liqour which is the best! The white chocolate chip??? Hmmm, I used them, but not sure If I would like it better with or without.

Excellent! I made this recipe and what a wonderful recipe it is. Although, I made the mistake of putting in the sugar in the cake mix, but it turned out really great. My whole family loves it. Definitely a new favorite.

For the chocolate lover, replace the cake mix and pudding with chocolate, along with making the white chocolate chips semi-sweet chocolate. For a glaze, I melted chocolate chips and orange liquor, poked holes in the cake, and drizzled the chocolate sauce over the cake. If you like chocolate, you'd love this cake...very moist and rich even without the sauce. My aunt, the chocoholic in the family absolutely loved it.

This is a good cake. I made it on Sunday and have about 3 slices left today (2 days later, so it didn't fly out of here as fast as other cakes. I did sub orange juice for the liquer. Thanks!

This cake is awesome! I've made it a few times and it's gotten rave reviews every time. It is very moist, has a great flavor and is extremely easy to make. No need for icing -- just dust with some powdered sugar. Delicious!

Great cake and so easy to prepare. For easy pan removal, grease and flour pan and allow cake to cool in pan at least 45 minutes before removing it. Can also add a glaze when cake has cooled for a beautiful presentation. Cake is done when it springs back to the touch. Texture was perfect.

the cake turned out well, it's easy and quick enough. I didn't use orange liqueur but an almond one. Only, the white choc chunks disappeared when cooked, so you coundn't detect them. I'll try with something in the batter that remains...

This cake is awesome! What wonderful flavor and nice and moist. I made it for my husbands birthday and everyone loved it. Instead of the icing sugar, I put on dream whip with orange flavoring and then sprinkled more white chocolate chips on top. Nice presentation. Thanks for the recipe, its a keeper!

I was very disappointed in this recipe. It looked great until about 10 min. after I took it out of the oven to cool. It fell flat, would not come out of pan and tore into several pieces. Maybe I did something wrong. It seems to me 2 cups sour cream is a lot but the taste is ok but it looks terrible.

I have made this cake twice - once using the original recipe and once using a chocolate cake mix with a chocolate pudding mix. I much prefer the chocolate version rather than the original version. I must say though that both times I took the cake to other people's houses and they all loved it! I will use this recipe again.

This cake was not great. The flavour was just so so and it was far too moist. Would definately not make this one again.
